WASHINGTON >> President Barack Obama plans to nominate former Proctor & Gamble executive Robert McDonald as the next Veterans Affairs secretary, as the White House seeks to shore up an agency beset by treatment delays and struggling to deal with an influx of new veterans returning from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
An administration official said Obama would announce McDonald's appointment Monday. If confirmed by the Senate, McDonald would succeed Eric Shinseki, the retired four-star general who resigned last month as the scope of the issues at veterans' hospitals became apparent.
In tapping McDonald for the post, Obama is signaling his desire to install a VA chief with broad management experience. McDonald also has a military background, graduating near the top of his class at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and serving as a captain in the Army, primarily in the 82nd Airborne Division.
The administration official insisted on anonymity in order to confirm McDonald's appointment before the president's announcement.
The VA operates the the largest integrated health care system in the country, with more than 300,000 fulltime employees and nearly 9 million veterans enrolled for care. But the agency has come under intense scrutiny in recent months amid reports of patients dying while waiting for appointments and of treatment delays in VA facilities nationwide.
Obama dispatched one of his top advisers, Rob Nabors, to the VA to help investigate agency issues and appointed Sloan Gibson as acting secretary while awaiting a permanent replacement.
Nabors and Gibson delivered a scathing report to Obama Friday, citing "significant and chronic system failures" in the nation's health system. The report also portrayed the Veterans Affairs Department as a struggling agency battling a corrosive culture of distrust, lacking in resources and ill-prepared to deal with an influx of new and older veterans with a range of medical and mental health care needs.
McDonald's nomination was praised by his peers in the private sector and military.
Jim McNerney, Chairman and CEO of The Boeing Company, called McDonald an "outstanding choice for this critically important position." Retired U.S. Army General Stanley McChystal, who served with McDonald in the 82nd Airborne, said the nominee's "business acumen, coupled with his dedication and love of our nation's military and veteran community, make him a truly great choice for the tough challenges we have at VA."
Senate Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said in a statement that he looked forward to meeting with McDonald next week to get his views on issues he views as important.
Among them, Sanders said in a statement, "The VA needs significantly improved transparency and accountability and it needs an increased number of doctors, nurses and other medical staff so that all eligible veterans get high-quality health care in a timely manner."
McDonald led Procter & Gamble from 2009 to 2013. During that time, the company website states: "P&G realized annual sales of over $84 billion. The company had more than 120,000 employees, 120 plants and 200 brands in 35 categories, of which 25 brands generate over $1 billion in sales each year."
The company's Tide detergent, Crest toothpaste and other products can be found in 98 percent of American households. But under McDonald's leadership, P&G struggled to grow under increased competition and global economic challenges. Critics suggested he was having trouble getting the 150-year-old-plus company to fire on all cylinders.
Investors, including activist investor William Ackman, voiced frustration over the company's slow revenue growth and stagnant market share gains. Ackman, who took a 1 percent stake in the company, pressed for the company to streamline operations and improve results.
In a letter announcing his retirement from P&G, McDonald wrote, "This has been a very difficult decision for me, but I'm convinced it is what is in the best interests of the company and you."
"During the past year, much attention has been focused on me from several angles, which has been a distraction that is not in our best interests," he wrote.
In a surprise move, McDonald was replaced by the man he had replaced, former P&G CEO A.G. Lafley.
McDonald has also served on the board of directors of the Xerox Corp., the United States Steel Corp., the McKinsey Advisory Council and the Greater Cincinnati regional initiative intended to "grow high-potential startups" in the Cincinnati region.
McDonald is 61. A native of Gary, Indiana, McDonald grew up in Chicago and graduated from West Point in 1975 with a degree in engineering. He also earned an MBA from the University of Utah in 1978.

Celeb hacking scandal shows digital vulnerability
LOS ANGELES (AP) — To keep private pictures private, never upload them online.
That's the advice experts offer after hackers broke into female celebrities' personal accounts, stole nude photos and posted them on the web. Jennifer Lawrence and Mary Elizabeth Winstead have said they were victims of the hack attack.
Federal investigators are looking into the theft, and Apple confirmed Tuesday that while individual accounts were breached, its iCloud and Find My iPhone services remained secure.
This latest hacking scandal is another reminder that locking down digital data is a must for public figures.
"It shows that celebrities, like the rest of us, are not as attuned to Internet security as they should be," said marketing expert Dorie Clark. "Like many regular couples, celebrities probably enjoy taking racy photographs, but they have to recognize there are people out there who are inherently interested in what they're doing, and want to either make money or make a name for themselves by getting at those photos."
It could be embarrassing for anyone to have their nude image shown online, but most people aren't at risk of being targeted by hackers in this way, said Gary Zembow, who helps celebrities secure their data as founder of Hollywood Tech Consulting.
"If you accept that some celebrities need bodyguards," he said, "then their personal, private data needs a version of that, as well."
Individuals and companies increasingly use Internet-based "cloud" storage for images and other data. But such data can become more vulnerable once uploaded online, said professor Lance Larson, an instructor at San Diego State University's Graduate Program in Homeland Security.
"The cloud is like a storage locker," he said. "Are you the only person with the key? Or does the storage-unit owner also have a key?"
In short: "Don't put a document or photo online or in the cloud if you don't want it to get out at some point," he said.
It is unclear when and in what context the targeted actresses created the nude images. Winstead tweeted Sunday that the intimate pictures she took with her husband "in the privacy of our home" had long been deleted. "I can only imagine the creepy effort that went into this," she wrote.
Even though such hacking is illegal — the man who stole nude photos of Scarlett Johansson was convicted of federal wiretapping and unauthorized access to a computer — ensuring that all the illicit images are removed from all the sites that posted them is a never-ending challenge that one expert likened to a game of "whack-a-mole."
So how can celebrities — and others — protect their privacy in the Internet era?
Remember that all digital media, even with privacy controls, can become public, said professor Karen North, director of the Annenberg Program on Online Communities at the University of Southern California.
"What you think is private is public, and what you think is temporary is permanent," she said. "Once you share it with somebody, you no longer control the intellectual property."
To really keep something private, don't upload it and don't share it.
Also, log off the Internet and turn off the computer when you're done using it, Larson suggested.
"If you don't take that device offline," he said, "you're providing 24 hours a day, seven days a week of a potentially unmonitored computer on the Internet."
Be mindful of wireless networks as well — especially celebrities whose homes can often be located on "star maps" or shown during Hollywood tours. Zembow notes that anyone could pull up in front of the house and break into its Wi-Fi system.
"The simplest two words are strong passwords," he said.
Finally, those insistent upon taking sexy photos ought to consider using an offline device not connected to the Internet, and keep it locked in a safe. Or go retro and use a Polaroid.

School-issued laptops are becoming more and more common these days, but thanks to the action of one high school, students and parents might have second thoughts about bringing them home. The parents of a Pennsylvania high school student, Blake J. Robbins, have filed a lawsuit against his school district after discovering that school officials had allegedly been remotely accessing the laptop in order to take webcam photos of the students at home (via BoingBoing). There are a number of unanswered questions about this story, but if true, it could mean serious penalties for the Lower Merion School District.
According to the complaint, the school in question (Harriton High School) had issued laptops equipped with built-in webcams to every student so that they could have "24/7 access to school based resources" and the ability to work seamlessly between school and home when it comes to research and projects. In November of 2009, however, Robbins was disciplined by the Assistant Principal of his school, Lindy Matsko, for engaging in "improper behavior" in his home. At that time, Matsko cited a photograph from the built-in webcam on the laptop.
Robbins' father Michael supposedly confirmed with Matsko that the school has the ability to remotely activate the webcam "at any time it chose to view and capture whatever images were in front of the webcam." Needless to say, Robbins' parents were outraged at this development, as neither the school nor the district had told parents about this capability. As a result, the Robbins have filed a class-action lawsuit against the district, charging it with interception of electronic communications under the ECPA, theft of intellectual property under the CFAA, violations of the Stored Communications Act, violations of the Civil Rights Act, invasions of privacy, and violations of the Pennsylvania wiretapping and electronic surveillance act.
Ars tried to get clarification from Harriton High School about its laptop policy, but were told that no one at the school would be willing to discuss it with us. (Merion School District has not responded to our request for comment either.) As such, we're left speculating as to what else could have happened to led up to this seemingly surreal series of events.
It's possible that things may have played out differently than the complaint alleges, though. If it was a MacBook, for example, Blake may have used the built-in Photo Booth software to take a picture of himself doing something questionable while at home, which may or may not be against the school's policy. If that photo got posted online or even synced back with the school's admins the next day, it's possible that Matsko was given access to the photo for disciplinary purposes. This, of course, doesn't account for the claim that Matsko confirmed with Michael Robbins that the school could (and had) spied on Blake remotely, but we haven't heard the school's side of the story yet.
If the Robbins' allegations are true, then it certainly looks as if there were serious privacy violations at hand. The school may have the right to retain admin control over its own laptops, but spying on kids at home without their knowledge is likely not one of them. This is similar to a case from 2008 when a Florida woman took her laptop in for repairs and eventually discovered it was rigged up to take webcam photos of her at home without her knowledge. The Peeping Tom in that case ended up confessing to the deed and getting arrested, but things could get far more complicated if a government entity (in this case, a public school) was the one guilty of the peeping.

Today's News: Our Take - Charlie Sheen Says Daughter Was Bullied, Plots Revenge on School
Who's the bully now? After claiming that his daughter Sam, 9, was bullied out of school and called a liar, Charlie Sheen has posted "a legitimate call to arms" on Twitter, asking his fans to send "a rotted egg, a roll of toilet paper, or some dog sh-" to the school "with extreme prejudice."
"We will not tolerate this level of abhorrent disrespect towards the child of your favorite Warlock," Sheen wrote. "And if your [sic] feeling the 'show and tell' of it all, smear the shit to spell one name on the front door; VICTORIA. eat that loser. C hashtag HYLMN?"
Viewpoint School, private L.A. school, said in a statement to E! News that it was "concerned" about Sheen's revenge plot and had addressed his bully accusations last year, when Sam last attended the school. "Viewpoint School's highest priority is the safety, security and education of our students. Like all responsible schools across our nation, we are concerned when any individual uses a social media forum to encourage actions that may risk the safety and security of any school, the statement read.
"The parent of a former Viewpoint School student who has not attended Viewpoint School since March 2012 has made certain accusations in the media. Viewpoint School first became aware of these accusations last year. Our administrators addressed the issue appropriately at that time. Our School takes accusations of bullying very seriously. For over 50 years, Viewpoint School has provided a safe and nurturing environment for our students to thrive, and we will continue to do so."
TV Scorecard: What's renewed? What's canceled?
Do you think the Warlock's been drinking too much Tiger Blood again? Or is his defense of his daughter #winning?

Since I've been talking about goals lately, I thought I better address something that I left as a loose end last year. Remember, back when I was half-way through my pregnancy with Cora, my goal of organizing a list of 20 things in 20 weeks?
Well, I got all behind, and then I had my baby, and cleaning with a newborn, a toddler and a preschooler during the harvest season… forget it!
So the day before Christmas eve, I went on a frenzy in the bathroom. And I redid the storage in there. And then I remembered it was on the list of 20 things I wanted to get organized! Woohoo!
So here's the before…
Ok, this cool shelf thing that hangs on the wall holds our towels and a bunch of other stuff. Q-tips, nail clippers, Rick's beard trimmer. Extra soap is up there in a brown box, a ton of random things are in that basket, some bubble bath and a low-flow shower head that's not going to be installed in the shower anytime soon is up there too.
Under that shelf thing, we have the potty chair and a basket of bath toys.
Then, lastly, in front of the toilet we have a little storage bench full of our extra towels and wash cloths, and on top; my many, many magazine subscriptions (yes, I'm a magazine junkie). Hey, everyone reads in the bathroom, I need variety. And it's my only place without the kids. It's peaceful. Just like every mom.
And here's the after…
First I moved the bench. Lots more space here now in front of the toilet.
Then I emptied and reorganized the extra towels (got rid of a couple oldies that were worn out) and recycled or filed old magazines. Now just the most current ones are out… and stacked nicely. Went through the bath toys and tossed any that were too icky. Cleaned any that needed cleaning and washed the basket liner. The potty chair is used for emergency trips in the boys room – been saving E's sheets this way. Thinking of skipping the potty chair all together for C if we can, by the way.
And the biggie – the shelf. Cleaned out that basket, tossing anything expired or irrelevant (yes, irrelevant). That basket in the bedroom closet caught the extra soap and the shower head until we are ready to use them. We used the bubble bath up and the bottle is now a soap dispenser in the kitchen. Hair ties were corralled in the blue jar, and lotion is up high so it doesn't end up in the two-year old's hair again. After all that, there was room for my apothecary jar of bath salts that used to live on the tank of the toilet. Not like I ever have time for a bath, let alone many baths to necessitate an apothecary jar full of salts – HA! But it's pretty and the kids enjoy them, I guess. 😉
Anyway. It looks much nicer in there and I'm really loving it. We desperately need a remodel in there, but I'm holding off until C is potty trained. Hopefully by then, the boys won't be missing the toilet any more either. 😉 In the mean time, this is working great so far and it feels a lot more relaxing in there.
What about that list of 20 (which I later cut to only 18)? I'm gonna finish it this year if it kills me. Click this link to see what I've already done, and below is what's left:
- Bathroom cabinet
- Boys closet shelf and clothing
- Boys toys and bedding storage
- Desktop/drawers and move desk out of office
- Office corners
- Office closet upper shelf
- Junk drawers
- Buffet
- Our bedroom closet
- Seed Storage
- Make a place for table linens
- Canned goods/canning and food storage supplies
- Find a place for Rick's work clothes and my business supplies
- Kitchen glasses cupboard
- Bathroom linens/storage
- Scrapbooking table
- My sewing items
- Lower kitchen appliance cabinet
Not too bad, eh? So what if it's late. It's still getting done! Yippee! This whole thing was inspired by Organizing Junkie's 52 Weeks project. Check it out to be inspired.
Is reorganizing anything on your list of resolutions this year?

Lots of yummies on this weeks list! But first, how about a cookie recipe?
I know you've been waiting for the English translation of the last Francophone Fridays post, the sablés aux noisettes aux baies de bérberies (dans la langue de Molière) or Hazelnut Sandies with barberries (in the language of Shakespeare).
When the adorable Mihl and P. finally came visit us last year, they came with loads of goodies for us to eat. One of the special treats they lugged with them across Europe (well, from Germany to south-western France anyway) was a bag of beautiful dried barberries! Mihl uses them in some of the many recipes she has on her blog Seitan Is My Motor, and I couldn't wait to try them for myself! If you're unfamiliar with these tart Persian berries, you can read a little over at Wiki if you'd like.
Once I had the coveted berries in my possession, I found myself wondering what to do with the little gems. I had too many ideas, but a limited supply of berries, and I didn't want to squander them on just any-old recipe where dried cranberries or currents could be used. Then, it hit me (gently, I wasn't harmed).
We have lots of things in common, my dear Mihl and I, among which dear memories of our sweet grandmothers. I decided to honor their memories with these cookies, heavily-inspired by one of my great-grandmother's recipes. These sablés (sugar cookies) or "sandies" as my great-grandmother Mary called them, are subtle and sophisticated with a lovely duo of textures : crumbly, buttery sugar cookie and sweet and tart dried barberries. The ground hazelnuts add just a hint of bitterness which plays wonderfully with the brown sugar-encrusted cookies. If you don't have barberries, dried unsweetened cranberries would work well, though I would probably dice them up, or try dried currents.
Hazelnut Sandies with Barberries
For about 40 cookies – advance preparation required!
2 tsp Ener-g Egg Replacer
2 tbsp water
175 g non-dairy butter, room temperature
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
180 g sifted powdered sugar
300 g AP flour
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp baking powder (11 g)
120 g ground hazelnuts
110 g dried barberries (or cranberries)
4 tbsp brown sugar
1) In a large bowl combine the flour, cornstarch, powdered sugar, baking powder and ground hazelnuts. Set aside.
2) In a small mixing bowl or in a food processor, whip the water and Ener-G until it's frothy, at least 3 minutes.
3) With an electric mixer, cream the powdered sugar and butter until it's light and fluffy, then add the Ener-G, lemon juice, and vanilla. Continue mixing until well combined.
4) Now add the flour, a little at a time, then fold in the barberries. Divide the dough in two.
5) Spread half of the brown sugar on a piece of tinfoil about 30 cm long. Lightly flour your hands, and roll one half of the dough into a log about 20 cm long. If you're having a difficult time working with your dough, try dusting it with some flour, a little at a time, and it will be easier to work with. Go with your gut, and if the dough is very sticky, just knead a little flour in until it's "workable".
6) Gently roll the log through the brown sugar, covering the exterior. Add a little sugar to the foil if there are some sugar-free spots. Roll up the log with the foil, twisting the ends shut. Do the same with the other half of the dough, and refrigerate for at least two hours.
7) Pre-heat the oven to 175°c and prepare two cookie sheets with silicon mats or parchment paper. Gently unroll the dough and slice cookies 15mm thick, wiping the knife clean each time. If you're having a difficult time slicing the cookies, don't fret! Just cover it back up and put it in the freezer for about 15 minutes, then try again.
VIII) Bake for about 13 minutes, until they are just firm and lightly browned on the bottom. Let them cool slightly for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.
Now for this week's Meal Plan :
Monday : crêpes sucrées et salées (savory and sweet crêpes) with sautéed mushrooms and onions for the savory, and powdered sugar and lemon juice for the sweet. So. good.
Tuesday : Risotto with mushrooms and peas, served with braised dandelion greens.
Wednesday : Polenta with garlic gravy.
Thursday : Hot & Sour Carrots and Lentils, a tester recipe for The Urban Vegan.
Friday : Pizza Night! How I love you so…
Do you blog your weekly meal plans? Super-cool world-traveler Vegan Snorkler has one up today. Let me know, I'd love to link to your plan to share the planning mojo with everyone. And don't forget, if you're looking for meal plan inspiration you can visit the MPM archives.

Here's how the NRA lies about the Second Amendment
Pat Cunningham
The notion that the Second Amendment is about allowing the citizenry to mount an insurrection against the government is exactly backwards. Rather, it's about conscripting the citizenry to suppress insurrection.
Andrew Reinbach EXPLAINS:
If somebody brings up the first phrase–" A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State…" they [the National Rifle Association, et al] insist the militia meant the people at large, and that the idea was to create a counterweight to the central government, so it wouldn't dare infringe on the people's rights.
I'm sorry to have to burst their bubble–well, not ...

OS X 10.9 will reportedly focus on the "power user," according to sources speaking to 9to5Mac. The release, code-named "Cabernet," isn't expected to significantly overhaul how the operating system functions, but will reportedly bring over more iOS features that could benefit OS X.
What might those features be? According to 9to5Mac's sources, Apple has been "testing a new multi-tasking system" that's similar to the app-switcher within iOS. "The multitasking feature will be functional for applications in the background, according to this person. Additionally, Apple could use app-pausing technologies from iOS to pause background application processes in OS X," the site wrote, though apparently it's unclear whether this feature will make the official 10.9 release.
The other "power user" features reportedly include modifications to the Finder that would bring a tabbed browsing mode, an updated version of Safari with "a redesigned backend for improved page loading, speed, and efficiency," and the ability to keep different Spaces open on separate monitors.
Apple has not yet discussed 10.9 publicly, but is expected to do so at this summer's Worldwide Developers Conference that starts on June 10. In 2011 and 2012, major OS X releases came about a month after WWDC, so it seems likely that Apple may try to release 10.9 in a similar time frame. That said, there have been rumors that 10.9 has been delayed so engineers could focus on iOS 7, so it's anyone's guess when we might see the next version of OS X.

Starbucks ad brews gun-control debate
Starbucks has always set itself apart by taking strong positions on progressive political issues. Now that reputation has landed the company in the middle of the heated national debate over gun laws.
On Thursday, the Seattle-based company ran full-page ads in major newspapers telling customers that guns are no longer welcome in its cafes. But Starbucks is stopping short of an outright ban, exposing the fine line it needs to walk on a highly divisive issue.
"We are not pro-gun or anti-gun," CEO Howard Schultz said in an interview, noting that customers will still be served if they choose to a carry gun.
The move comes as the company finds itself at the center of a fight it didn't start. In recent months, gun control advocates have been pressuring Starbucks to ban firearms, while supporters of gun rights have celebrated the company's decision to defer to local laws. About a month ago, Starbucks shut down a store in Newtown, Conn., early to avoid a demonstration by gun rights advocates. They had planned to stage a "Starbucks Appreciation Day," bringing their firearms and turning the company into an unwitting supporter of gun rights.
Support for guns runs counter to the Starbucks image. The warm feeling Starbucks customers get when they're sipping lattes doesn't always come from the coffee. For some, part of the brand's attraction is the company's liberal-leaning support of issues such as gay marriage and environmental preservation.
But with more than $13 billion in annual revenue and about 7,000 company-owned stores across the country -in red states and blue – Starbucks is being forced to tread carefully with its special blend of politics and commerce.
Many states allow people to carry licensed guns in some way, but some businesses exercise their right to ban firearms. They can do so because their locations are considered private property. Starbucks isn't the only company that doesn't ban guns, but it has become a target for gun control advocates, in part because of its corporate image.
"This is a coffee company that has championed progressive issues," said Shannon Watts, founder of the gun reform group Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. "They've positioned themselves about being about the human spirit – that was so at odds with this policy that allowed guns inside their stores."
Starbucks' mission statement is to "inspire and nurture the human spirit" and over the years, it has taken strong positions on a number of thorny issues. Earlier this year, the company banned smoking within 25 feet of its stores, wherever its leases allowed. The idea was to extend its no-smoking policy to the outdoor seating areas, regardless of state laws on the matter.
At the company's annual meeting in March, a shareholder stood to criticize Starbucks' support of marriage equality. Schultz told the man it was a free country and that he could sell his shares.
Starbucks has also been vocal about its health care benefits for workers. And the company says it only does business with coffee farmers who pay workers decent wages and farm in an environmentally friendly way.
Such stances explain why Moms Demand Action, which was founded the day after the mass shootings in Newtown, Conn., has been urging Starbucks to ban guns with its "Skip Starbucks Saturdays."
In turn, gun rights advocates have been galvanized by the company's decision to defer to local laws and staged the "Starbucks Appreciation Days."
Schultz said the events mischaracterized the company's stance on the issue and the demonstrations "have made our customers uncomfortable."
He said he hopes people will honor the request not to bring in guns but says the company will nevertheless serve those who do.
"We will not ask you to leave," he said.
The Seattle-based company's ad campaign included major national newspapers including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post and USA Today. The ad contained a letter from Schultiz that pointed to recent activities by both gun rights and gun control advocates at its stores, saying that it has been "thrust unwillingly" into the middle of the national debate over firearms.
As for the "Starbucks Appreciation Days" being staged by gun rights advocates, it stressed: "To be clear: we do not want these events in our stores."
But the letter noted that Starbucks is standing by its position that the matter should ultimately be left to lawmakers. Schultz also said he doesn't want to put workers in the position of having to confront armed customers by banning guns. The AP was provided a picture of a memo to Starbucks employees on Tuesday. The document instructs workers not to confront customers or ask them to leave solely for carrying a weapon.
Phillip Hofmeister, president of gun rights group Michigan Open Carry Inc., said he respects the right of private businesses such as Starbucks to determine its own gun policies. But he noted that the message was confusing.
"They're trying to make people like myself feel unwelcome but it's not an outright ban," said Hofmeister, who said he has been carrying a gun in public where permitted for the past several years.
Even if there's no ban, Hofmeister said he won't patronize a business where he didn't feel welcome.
Several companies do not allow firearms in their stores, including Peet's Coffee & Tea and Whole Foods. Representatives for those two companies said there haven't been any problems with enforcing their gun bans.

Revision as of 10:56, 14 February 2013
This page describes a scenario for illustrating the use of Mihini on an Open Hardware Linux-based platform such as BeagleBoard or RaspberryPi.
The goal would be for someone to be able to be only one hour away from taking a bare development board and have it configured to collect data out of the GPIO sensors.
Please bear in mind that Mihini is still under development.
- 1 Step 1 - Build Mihini
- 2 Step 2 - Start Mihini on your device
- 3 Step 3 - Setup Koneki environment
- 4 Step 4 - Create your first application
- 5 Step 5 - Install your application
Step 1 - Build Mihini
So far, all the work is being done directly on your remote system. For the following sample, pi user is being used on a RaspberryPi running Raspbian Wheezy. Connect to you device using
ssh and follow the steps.
$ ssh firstname.lastname@example.com
Compilation prerequisites
First of all, you will need some compilation tools:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake git telnet
Sources to compile
Get the sources [NOTE: the source code of Mihini is not yet available. Still, we wanted to work on this detailed tutorial in parallel of the IP review process...]
$ cd /tmp/ $ git clone ssh://host/mihini.git
Run the compilation
Lets move into the repository you just cloned. Make sure you have all prerequisites mentioned above installed. Now, simply run the following in the repository you just cloned, here called
# Compile Mihini $ cd mihini $ ./bin/build.sh # Compile Lua $ cd build.default/ $ make lua
Configure Mihini
Then there will be some configuration on
- Enable the application container
appcon.activate = true
- Enable the update manager
update.activate = true
OPTIONAL (but useful :))
- Enable Lua shell on all network interfaces by adding
shell.address = "*"
- Disable colors while logging , in order to not clutter your syslog.
log.enablecolors = false
It should be easier
What is explained above is just a beginning. We are about to provide material which will speed up previous steps, such as:
- How to cross compile Mihini from your Desktop machine
defaultconfig.luawith the right default settings
- A Linux package, to avoid any kind of compilation or configuration ( It is hypothetical )
Step 2 - Start Mihini on your device
One of the features of Mihini is to manage the life cycle of your application. In order to do so, applications are run from another program: the
Appmon. We need to start it.
On your device, here a RaspberryPi with user
$ cd mihini/bin/ $ sudo ./appmon_daemon -a /home/pi/mihini/start.sh -w /home/pi/mihini -u pi -g pi -n 5 2>&1 | logger -t Mihini&
Notice: we launched
appmon_daemon and
mihini with
root user rights, and applications managed by
appmon_daemon will be launched using user
pi that should give sufficient user rights for most of needs.
Stop Mihini manually
$ sudo killall agent $ sudo killall appmon_daemon
As a service
Soon :)
Step 3 - Setup Koneki environment
- Download Lua Development Tools
- Install Remote Development Support for LDT
- Configure the remote target in the Koneki environment
- Define your device and configure its "SSH Lua" paths like this
- If you want the text version
- Define your device and configure its "SSH Lua" paths like this
LUA_PATH: /home/pi/mihini/lib/?.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lib/?/init.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?/init.lua;./?.lua
LUA_CPATH: /home/pi/mihini/lib/?.so;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?.so
LD_LIBRARY_PATH: $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/pi/mihini/lib
- Configure the "Mihini execution environment" (coming soon, will provide nice autocompletion...)
- Create a launch/debug configuration and test your script.
Step 4 - Create your first application
You could blink a LED, use a touch sensor, measure the temperature and available RAM of the board... I decided to keep it simple in this tutorial, my application will simply log :). The file is
local log = require "log" local sched = require "sched" local function main() log("GENERAL", "INFO", "My first Mihini app is alive :)") end sched.run(main) sched.loop()
Step 5 - Install your application
All you a have to do in order to enable Mihini to handle you application is:
- Create a launcher
- Provide sources
Create a launcher
Mihini Application container runs executables. To run a Lua application, we need to set some variables beforehand and then lauch your application. In order to do so lets create the proper launcher. In the Mihini world, it is an executable file called
run. Here is its content:
#!/bin/sh # Setting up paths export LUA_PATH="/home/pi/mihini/lib/?.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lib/?/init.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?.lua;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?/init.lua;./?.lua" export LUA_CPATH="/home/pi/mihini/lib/?.so;/home/pi/mihini/lua/?.so" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/pi/mihini/lib" # Running app /home/pi/mihini/bin/lua main.lua
Now the my application folder looks like
$ find raspapp/ raspapp/ raspapp/run raspapp/main.lua
Install application
First of all, I presume you already have an Appmon Daemon running. You may wonder which way you can interact with Mihini. While starting, Mihini opens a
Telnet server on port
2000, it enables you communicate with its runtime. We are about to use it to install an app available at '/tmp/raspapp', which will be named 'sample', this application will benefit from autostart ( the last
true parameter ).
$ telnet localhost 2000 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. Lua interactive shell > appcon = require 'agent.appcon' > = appcon.install('sample', '/tmp/raspapp', true) 2013-01-22 13:33:45 APPCON-INFO: Installing application "sample" = ok
We can check that the application is properly installed
> for app, t in pairs(appcon.list()) do + print( app ) + for field, data in pairs(t) do + print("\t", field, data) + end + end sample autostart true runnable true
CTRL-D to quit.
We can even check logs:
$ cat /var/log/syslog | grep Mihini
Over the air
One day, it will be possible to install application to your remote system Mihini just from its IP, and even more:
- Use the Koneki tools to create an application package
- Deploy the package on a publically available web server
- Connect to the Mihini console and for a connection to the testing server
- You may want to have udev rules so as your USB devices (typically the 3G stick) does not end up having an always changing /dev/ttyUSB<something> file descriptor...
- For a Sierra 3G stick, create a 99-aircard.rules in /etc/udev/rules.d, with the following rules (your ID_VENDOR_ID and ID_MODEL_ID may be different):
SUBSYSTEM=="tty", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="1199", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="68a3", ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACE_NUM}=="03", SYMLINK+="ttyATConsole0"
SUBSYSTEM=="tty", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="1199", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="68a3", ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACE_NUM}=="04", SYMLINK+="ttyATConsole1"
- For a serial-USB adapter: http://hintshop.ludvig.co.nz/show/persistent-names-usb-serial-devices/
- Below is a template of the defaultconfig.lua that you should use to have most of the important features (appmon, updatemanager, ...) of Mihini enabled
- Remove Lua comments to save some flash on very tiny devices (could probably be part of the build process btw)
find . -type f -name '*.lua' -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '/^[ \t]*--/d'
- Strip binary code, to save flash too
find . -type f -name '*.so' -print0 | xargs -0 $STRIP_EXECUTABLE_PATH

Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree
Sew your casual blouse to your liking
The clothes we wear boost our self-confidence,
So it is very appropriate to set your blouse to your liking
Take a look at the blouse above and if you like it, you can sew as well.
You may be a tailor, so you can try to sew this blouse yourself,
Maybe if you are not a tailor, you can ask your tailor to sew similarly,
If the blouse we wear is our favorite, it will give beauty to our mind and body,
It is better to have a favorite neck area with your favorite design in the blouse of your choice, otherwise you can change your favorite neck area yourself.
You can easily design Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree by following the steps below
Step 1 :
Choose the right fabric for the Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree
Step 2 :
Use the old blouse with the right body size and check the sizes of the blouse that will be made into the new design.
Note: If the body size of the old blouse is incorrect, the newly designed blouse will be incorrect, so attention is required.
Step 3 :
The back neck of the Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree that are being designed are "U – shape", which can accurately measure old blouse sizes. If the blouse does not fit the body size, measure the new one. Maybe customers want a different shape of the back neck.
for example
U – shape
ப – shape
v – shape
Butterfly shape
Full closed back neck
Half Pot shape
Pot shape and more
Back neck U shape model (Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree )
Hand area (Sleave Part)
This is the heart of the design, The hand part is the main part of the design, The area that gives the most beauty, More attention is needed in designing the hand area,
There are two types of hand area
1. Small hand
2. Long hand (elbow)
Note: More attention is required when marking the size of the hands
Although the right hand and left hand are the same size, the design is a little different
Although small hand and large hand (elbove), the design is a little different, Blouse users may have more or less arm circumference, Small changes in design are likely to occur during that time.
Step 4 :
More attention needs to be paid to the design of the hand part in the blouse, take a look at the hand design in the picture above and find out what kind of design is in the initial border area of the hand, using what materials. Also design the Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree arm area border with the right materials,
After designing the sleeve border, look at the rest of the section and design your blouse by looking at what kind of designs are available, the materials used to design the sleeve area of the blouse, etc.
Step 5 :
Design and create the left hand in the same way as the right hand,
Hip size For Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree
The Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree can be divided into two sections
Cloth Type
Stitching properly
Blouse Stitching depends on the tailor
If the cloth quality is low it is the Cloth Selector fault,
It is the tailor's fault if the body sizes and fit are not correct,
Only if these two are right, the blouse will be perfect and the beauty will be great,
Waist size is very important, you can not wear a blouse if the size increases or decreases,
The waist size of the blouse is high and will be uncomfortable after wearing,
Blouse waist size is low, can not be worn to be tight,
Keep in mind the concept mentioned above, in designing your blouse, clearly look at your favorite color, the size of the sleeves, the front and back of the blouse, the right size for the waist, the design of the chest area.
Conclusion: Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree
Crimson Red Paithani – Ikat Saree is clearly explained by this article,
Then the materials needed for this design and how to handle them,
How to start designing,
Steps in the design of ongoing work,
How to finish the design,
Tips to look out for in this design
Colors that match the design exactly
How to take the required size from the old blouse,

Can Stop, Will Stop: Paul Racer Brakes
In fairness, I should note here that I know riders who use Silver Bigmouth sidepulls, Tektro Bigmouth sidepulls, and Dia Compe 750 centerpulls on fat tire roadbikes without issue. However, my grip strength is weak and I have damaged nerves in my hands. Braking power with the combination of road levers and long-reach brakes has been an ongoing problem, including on bikes built for cantis. It is useful to know that Paul brakes are an option that works. The Center Mount version of the Racers does not require special braze-ons and can be used on any bike that accepts sidepull brakes, provided there is enough steerer available for a cable hanger.
Paul Racer brakes can be purchased from the manufacturer directly, or ordered via your local bike shop. The company is based in Chico, California, where they have been making parts since 1989.

Ian Ayres, Situationist Contributor Mahzarin Banaji, and Christine Jolls recently posted their paper, titled "Race Effects on Ebay" on SSRN. Here's the abstract.
* * *
We investigate the impact of seller race in a field experiment involving baseball card auctions on eBay. Photographs showed the cards held by either a dark-skinned/African-American hand or a light-skinned/Caucasian hand. Cards held by African-American sellers sold for approximately 20% ($0.90) less than cards held by Caucasian sellers, and the race effect was more pronounced in sales of minority player cards. Our evidence of race differentials is important because the on-line environment is well controlled (with the absence of confounding tester effects) and because the results show that race effects can persist in a thick real-world market such as eBay.

(ARA) - Moving should be an exciting time - you're off to a new apartment, your first home, maybe moving up to a larger home. But for many people, moving turns into a stressful, aggravating experience. It doesn't have to be that way. Some advance planning, a little research and the right attitude can combine to make your next move the best one ever.
Organization is key to a successful move, so lists are your friends. Keep track of all the details that need to be tended to, especially things that might fall through the cracks, like taking back your cable box. Include everything from renting a moving truck to forwarding your mail, and start doing anything on the list that can be tackled early. As you plan, keep in mind that many truck rental companies will give you a discounted rate if you move mid-week and mid-month instead of at peak times.
Speaking of getting a jump on things, start packing now. You can find all the supplies you need, such as boxes, bubble wrap, packing tape and more at truck rental outlets like Budget Truck Rental. The experts there can help you figure out how many and what types of boxes you'll need to protect your possessions. Whether you're moving in a few months or in a few weeks, you should be packing things you know you can live without for a while. This allows you to pack with care, and mark the boxes so you'll be able to find what you're looking for when you get to your new place. Leaving packing until the last minute is one of the biggest sources of stress for people who are moving.
About a month before your move date, reserve your moving truck. The company you choose makes a big difference. With 30,000 trucks nationwide, Budget Truck Rental has locations where you need them, and a great selection of trucks for every size move, whether it's a 10-foot truck (for studio apartments with one or two rooms), a 16-footer (for three to four rooms) or a 24-foot truck that can haul up to 8 rooms of stuff. They'll even give you expert tips on loading the truck. The trucks are easier to drive than you might think. All Budget trucks have automatic transmissions, air conditioning and are clean comfortable and well-maintained for safety and reliability.
If you're moving long-distance and need to tow your car, Budget offers two options: the car carrier, which carries your entire car on a trailer that attaches to the rear of your truck (recommended for four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles); or the tow dolly, which is recommended for front-wheel drive vehicles. The tow dolly lifts the front wheels of the car off the pavement and pulls it behind your truck.
Take care of mail and utilities. Stop by your local post office and fill out the form to forward your mail. You'll also want to change the address on any magazine subscriptions or other services you receive by mail, such as video rentals. You can take care of most of these changes online. You also need to contact all your utilities, both for the place you're moving out of and your new place. This includes local and long distance phone, Internet service, gas, electric, water and cable/satellite. Don't forget to update your renter's or homeowner's insurance as well.
Make sure you have a group of friends lined up to help you move. If you have followed your list and have everything packed and ready to go, loading up the truck should be a breeze. If you still have some boxes to pack, your friends can load while you finish up. Be sure to keep the moving crew happy by providing plenty of food and drink. Just save the beer for after the move is complete.
If you take care of all these details before your move, all you'll have to worry about once the boxes are unloaded is finding the perfect spot for your favorite chair. For more moving tips, visit BudgetTruck.com.
